Seeing more AI tools in transcription lately

Has anyone else noticed a rise in AI-driven transcription tools lately? I’ve been experimenting with a few and it’s interesting to see how they handle the nuances of medical language. I’m curious if these tools are enhancing our work or if they’re just adding complexity. What’s everyone’s take?

I’ve found that while AI can provide a good starting point, it sometimes misses specific terminology unique to our field. It definitely helps speed up the process, but double-checking with our knowledge is still key. Do you have any tools you’ve found particularly helpful?

I get what you mean about AI tools in transcription; I’ve had mixed results too. They can really streamline the initial draft process, but they often butcher specific jargon. It’s almost like you need to babysit them through the medical terms to get it right. Have you tried any specific tools that worked better than others for you?

It’s so frustrating when AI tools miss those specific terms that can really change the meaning. I’ve noticed it especially with rare conditions or medications; they just don’t seem to catch the nuances. It does speed things up, but the cleanup can be a real hassle.
